Class of ’93s, you are some astounding individuals! Peter Kuechle, our beloved Alumni Council representative, biked in the Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) in honor and memory of the people in his life who have been touched by cancer. His neighbor posted, “How lucky am I to have such amazing neighbors and friends who think about me at one of the most difficult times in my life. Peter rode and completed the Pan-Mass challenge ride from Boston to Provincetown (160-plus miles) in record-breaking heat in memory of special people he knew who lost their battle to cancer and in honor of me, who is currently fighting this disease. The PMC’s mission is to raise funds for cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.”

Tracey (Pettengill) Turner is the founder and chairman of Copia Global (copiaglobal.com), which provides “e-commerce for 750 million middle- to low-income Africans.” The company was recently featured at Forbes.com with an article highlighting the compelling journey from need to solution. Tracey began the company in 2010 and “to date, they have served 1.6 million customers through 30,000 collection points.” It is a wonderful piece detailing an innovative solution to a longstanding problem.

Bobby Sepucha shared on LinkedIn: “I am thrilled beyond words to join my colleagues at Fresenius Health Partners and InterWell Health on the next step in our journey to help people with kidney disease live their best lives. I am incredibly proud of everything we have done at Cricket Health, and I am very excited to build on that foundation of success at the new InterWell Health.” He and his wife, Karen (Cushing) Sepucha, live in Concord, Massachusetts, with their family.

Bill Lapcevia currently works for NS1 (ns1.com), which describes itself as “the world’s leading platform for smart network control.”Bill recently wrote an article that was picked up by Channel Futures titled “Don’t Get Buried in a Cloud Marketplace” The article provides recommendations “to learn why cloud marketplace partnership is valuable to customers.”

Next, Jay Decker messaged that he had started painting in the last year and a half. He has a website, www.jaydeckerart.com, featuring his impressionist works that showcases his terrific talent and clear passion for the work.

Shana Smith posted a photo with Abby Wildman Konopasky stating that they “traveled around the former Soviet Union together on a Dartmouth exchange but hadn’t seen each other since graduation. So great to finally catch up this morning in Silver Spring, Maryland!”

Shana also gave a shoutout to Kate Gaertner for her sustainability consultancy business, Triple Win Advisory (triplewinadvisory.com). Its stated mission is to “help build sustainable, stakeholder-centric, value-based, innovative, and resilient companies.” Kate is also the author of Planting a Seed and conducts sustainability workshops.

Finally, I opened an email from Andrew Weber and laughed out loud. “Here’s what I’ve been up to lately: I’ve seen a million faces—and I’ve rocked them all!” In addition to providing entertainment, he and his wife orchestrated an incredible bike-packing trip in Europe with their two sons and extended family. Their Facebook updates were awe-inspiring, as were the pictures that accompanied Andrew’s post, saying, “Cashed in a Christmas gift to check the Telluride Via Ferrata off the bucket list. A perfect day out in the mountains with some real moments of exposure and fear.”

I’m hoping to see these inspiring classmates and many, many more of you at our 30th reunion, which is June 16-18, 2023! In honor of this milestone, please email Dwight or me your favorite senior spring memories—we know there are some good ones out there!
